Long Live the Call of Heroes

Chapter 186 The Burning Village

After bidding farewell to Fei Shi, Li Wei slightly changed his route and decided to march on the plains normally.

In this way, they didn't have to deal with those disgusting murlocs immediately, but they soon attracted the attention of the demons. First, a few small teams of Tier 1 quasses as scouts and vanguards, and then at least sixty or seventy of them The demon marauders roared in.

Many of them are Tier 3 or even Tier 4 demons. For ordinary God's Chosen heroes, they are definitely strong enemies, but for Li Wei and the others, they are nothing more than a few rounds of arrow rain.

Li Wei also took the time to test the two new 1st-level magics he got. How should I put it, when dealing with these demons, his performance was a bit unsatisfactory.

Because many demons not only have strong fire resistance, but also have high resistance to water and darkness, and the attack limit of level 1 magic is not high, so the damage that can actually be caused is very small. It's even more pitiful.

Often when Li Wei shoots a water arrow, he can cause over 10 points of damage to the opponent.

In contrast, Shark Ghost Bite may be better, because in addition to causing slightly higher damage and looking awe-inspiring, it also has a chance to cause bleeding effects on the enemy, of course, it is only a little better.

However, they were only Tier 1 magic, and Li Wei didn't have much expectations, so naturally he wouldn't be disappointed at all.

But despite this, because the long-range shooters are powerful enough, and the witch Tiwa also uses magic assistance very frequently, less than one in ten demons can really rush in front of them.

If you encounter a slightly weaker demon raiding team, you often don't need melee troops such as Zhou Miyin and Simon to take action, and the battle is completely over.

It's just that although this made them feel a little relaxed, it was also a little helpless, because if they couldn't participate in battles frequently, they wouldn't become stronger as soon as possible.

On the contrary, the witch Tiwa seemed very happy. Although in the previous battle with the sahuagin, the gnolls under her command suffered heavy losses, and they were often the first to suffer casualties in the subsequent battles. Once, they were almost dead, but she didn't care much about it anymore.

Not only because of the continuous battle with the demons, she can perceive that her camp is slowly but firmly shifting to absolute neutrality, but also because Li Wei just gave her a book of water arrows.

With just such a light touch, the principle and structure of the entire magic is already clear to her chest, which is a treatment she has never enjoyed in the past.

Because of this, she worked harder in the next battle, and began to frequently use auxiliary magic such as body protection and stone skin. It seemed that she wanted to use this to win the favor of Li Wei and others, so that a similar opportunity would appear next time When they can think of her.

This scene made Li Wei a little funny, but at the same time he sighed a little. After all, he is also a hero unit. Why is it so humble?
It can only be said that she was probably misunderstood by the race of her origin. After all, although the wolf man has a person in his name, he is more like a beast that drinks blood and has no magic inheritance at all.

But for himself, this is a good phenomenon, because it means that his success rate of recruiting opponents will increase even more.

No, maybe the heat is almost ready now, and the only thing missing is a village of his own, right?

Whether it is the old mage, the witch Greta of the bee tribe, or the witch Tiwa in front of them, they all seem to have a special obsession with the village. Probably they all think that only a village that belongs to them can be regarded as a possession. Let's have a solid rear, maybe I really should move faster
Thinking about it this way, Li Wei and the others followed the instructions on the map and went to a village where they could settle down, intending to replenish consumables a little bit, and inquire about the surrounding information, etc., if they can find a leak in the tavern and recruit some rare units, That would be even more perfect.

But when they actually arrived, they found that they seemed to have come too late, because there was no longer a village, and instead there was a burning ruin.

As far as they can see, there are at least four or five hundred demons dancing in the flames, looking extraordinarily excited, and the faint magic fluctuations and a huge magic circle seem to indicate that they are performing some kind of sacrifice sacrificial ceremony.

As for the original residents of this place, one can imagine what would happen. If they hadn't escaped in advance, they would have all died.

This is the most hateful thing about demons, because they never think of conquest, but massacre and destruction.

The only good thing is that since they saw the soaring fire here from a long distance, Li Wei and the others sneaked along the forest, and they were not noticed by the enemy for the time being. Whether they were fighting or fleeing, they all had Certain initiative.

Donna and other subordinates, as well as the witch Tiwa, all looked at Li Wei at the same time, waiting for his order.

Li Wei looked at the enemies ahead with a slight frown, not only because the terrain was not conducive to their fighting, but also because he found that these demons were slightly different from the types they had fought before, and they were more difficult to deal with.

Most obviously, the opponent's cannon fodder troops were no longer lemures or baboos, but replaced by a group of short, fat men with a height of one meter and a swollen figure - the original demons.

They have pale skin and flesh of the same color, and even Li Wei can clearly see some distorted maggots in the wound of the original demon closest to him.

Even for demons, this is not particularly common, usually only those guys with undead characteristics will have such a behavior.

Although the original demons are all level 1 cannon fodder, with short hands and short legs, and only claws to attack, after killing them, their corpses will explode directly on the spot, and the broken flesh and internal organs will cause enemies in a small area to die. So poisoned.

Although this kind of attack is not powerful, it is a skill that every original demon has, and they are really disgusting, and the damage to morale is often higher than the damage they can bring.

Then there are the 2nd-level slaughter demons and ape demons, less than [-] gogs and magogs who use fireballs as weapons, [-] or so hellhounds, and [-] or [-] heads. Although the level is not low, the strength is not very good Horned Demons and Horned Demon Warlords.

They are all old acquaintances of Li Wei, and Li Wei is well aware of their many weaknesses, but in the case of seizing the upper hand, he is still sure that he can successfully annihilate them without paying too much other side.

It was the last demon that really gave him some headaches.

At first glance, they look like centaurs. They all have the upper body of a human and the lower body of a horse. They also use spears as weapons, and they are also very good at charging and spearmanship. Even their name is directly Iron Rider Demon.

But the difference is that they have thick demon horns, and the same pale and decayed body as the original demon, and most importantly, they have the ability to fly in the air for a short time!

The survivability of the antlers, who are also at the fourth level and can use limited lay on hands, is indeed far superior to that of the opponent, but in terms of charging power alone, they can't keep up with the iron cavalry.

Although there are not less than 20 of them in total, once they make a successful air charge, Li Wei's team cannot be solved by reducing the number of people by three or five people.

Once the opponent successfully rushes into the archer's troops, the impact will be even greater. Without the suppression of the arrow rain, one's own melee troops will definitely not be able to defeat the opponent.

Under the many chain reactions, it is not completely impossible for his side to be defeated by a wave of charges. After all, Li Wei knows his own family affairs, and he is very dependent on the continuous long-range shooting of Donna and others.

Moreover, in the face of a powerful demon that can fly like the iron cavalry demon, with his current strength, there is really no effective way to fight it except to use the lives of his subordinates and summoned objects to fight hard.

This is not his pure guess or conjecture, but the blood and tears of at least dozens of God's Chosen heroes.

The only good thing is that there were no quasimoths in this group of demons, otherwise two kinds of flying enemies attacked together, and he would have no possibility of trying at all.

But even so, after careful observation for a while, he finally did not order to launch an attack. Instead, he asked his subordinates to continue to lurk carefully, and at the same time asked Donna and the others to help him find these demons, especially the leader of the Iron Rider Demon.

Needless to say, Donna quickly spotted several suspicious targets by virtue of her vision advantage.

Two guys covered in black robes, suspected to be legal units, and a fully armed man wearing a ferocious iron armor full of mysterious runes. In addition to the bloody spear in his hand, there are javelins, bows and arrows behind him The leader of the cavalry demon.

Even if you haven't fought at all, but looking at the opponent's appearance, it must be at least a Tier 5 or Tier 5 elite unit. Even if it is a hero unit, Li Wei will not feel particularly strange, after all, its equipment Apparently they're all enchanted.

And those two men in black robes, no matter how Li Wei looked at them, they looked familiar. Could it be the Fly Demon that they had killed before?They seemed to be holding some kind of sacrifice and summoning ceremony at the beginning
He was thinking like this, and in the next moment, a fiery red portal was opened, and a dozen cavalry demons came out in a file with dozens of crimson flame-breathing hellhounds, which directly confirmed his guess, and at the same time It can be regarded as completely dispelling his thoughts.

I didn't have any confidence at first, but now the enemy has reinforcements, so why fight?
And because God's Chosen Heroes who choose demons and devils are too rare, there is almost no information about the sacrifice ceremony on the forum. No one knows if this will be the opponent's only reinforcement!
So he immediately ordered his subordinates to withdraw their troops. If they didn't leave quickly, they would be too passive when these demons found their side.

Among other things, Gog and Magog threw a few fireballs casually, and each flame-breathing hellhound gave another breath of flames, and he and all his subordinates would be turned into ashes along with the forest.

And even if it's a fight on flat ground, no matter if you can't fight well, unless the opponent makes a serious mistake, your side will definitely suffer heavy losses. This is only about a quarter of the distance, and he doesn't want to go back now. Supplementary troops.

Fortunately, these demons don't have any scouts at all, and there are no flying scouts, and they seem to be enjoying the joy of massacre and sacrifice, so Li Wei and the others withdraw a certain distance very smoothly.

It's just that before they left completely, a series of horseshoes sounded suddenly in the north, and then the ground trembled slightly, and the smoke and dust also rose up.

Li Wei's heart immediately became tense, not only because the forces to which the visitors belonged were not yet clear, they were likely to be directly blocked from retreating, and more importantly, this undisguised movement would even arouse the panic of those demons. attention.

If they unfortunately encounter a pincer attack from both sides, it will be an unprecedented danger for them!
Sure enough, when he turned his head quickly, he found that a few cavalry demons had risen into the air from far away and flew directly towards their direction.

Li Wei immediately ordered directly: "Quickly, the whole army is ready for battle, ready to turn, we must not be flanked by both sides here, Tiwa, prepare for the quicksand trap!"

Before he could finish his sentence, following a series of flapping of wings, Sam and the halflings had already rushed back. Seeing his slightly excited expression, Li Wei breathed a sigh of relief, at least this should represent a good thing.

Sure enough, Sam soon said very happily: "My lord, the reinforcements of the high elves have arrived!"

"How many? What is the strength?"

"About one hundred people, among them there are about thirty or forty Alion predators, and the rest are all Lothern ocean guards!"

"Is that so?"

Li Wei still frowned a little, because neither the number nor the opponent's strength fell short of his expectations. The Alion Marauders were all cavalry and shooting units, and harassment was okay, but they couldn't fight tough battles.

The comprehensive strength of the Lothern Ocean Guards is not bad, but what can they do with mere fifty or sixty?
If they are not here, these high elves have only two choices, run away directly, or bravely launch a charge, and then be completely wiped out by the opponent!
Now that the two parties are working together, it is barely possible to try it, but the risk is also very high, and it depends on whether the high elves who come over are willing to cooperate.

Thinking of this, Li Wei directly ordered his subordinates to line up in the direction of the demons, and he summoned many summoned creatures, and at the same time asked the witch Tiwa to help use the body protection stone skin and quicksand trap.

The flying speed of the cavaliers is too fast, since they have been discovered, at least kill them first, and then decide whether to fight or flee!
